A HUNDRED YEARS A HERO.
How Seth Warner Won a Wife
and Became Famous.

and Became Famous.
Col. Seth Warner. of Vermont. the IA
nous hero of the Revolutionary war,
was Il leading fighter for tho Hampshire
grants.
These titles were disputed by the
State of New York, and its authorities
obtained an edict of the king of England
in their favor. The settlers were
stung by the supposed injustice. This
state OF things brought Col. Seth
Warner to the front. With Ethan
Allen and others he actively OPP
posed every effort Of the New York
state authorities to enforce possession,
and finally he. with Allen and others,
were outlawed and a price put on Their
headsl
To circumvent New York, it was nec-
essary that some n should go into that
state and gain required information. Col.
Warner assuming for safety the name
of "Dr. Howard and undertook this
p%erilous and romantic journey.
While on his way home he stopped at
a country inn, where an old gentleman
and daughter were storm-bound. The
father fell ill and the daughter called
upon Col. Warner, who with his wide
knowledge of simple remedies, success-
fully treated the "old man." and he
finally won this devoted woman for a
wife.
Such incidents were not uncommon
in those years. When the doctor was
not easily reached, months Of sickness
and eyen life were often saved by some
unprofessional friend versed in the use
of simple herbs and roots. The health
of early settlers and their powers of en-
durance convinces us that such medi-
cines did only good and left no poison in
the blood to work as much injury to the
systom as would the disease itself.
In time of peace tho colonel was in
constant demand for his knowledge Of
simple remedies and their power owe
disease. But it was left to another Of
his name of tho present age to give to
the public what was her used with such
positive SUCCESS.
Warner, for over a hundred years, has
! shared with Ethen Allen the admiration
Of the American people.
i Coionel Seth Warner belonges to \
family of wide distinction; no less than
eight members thereof won fame in the
regular practice of medicine.
Iookiny to the adoption bv the people
ct ti,is generation of the o,d limo simple
remedies, his direct descendant, II. II.
| Warner, the we'll known proprietor of
Warmers safe cure, for many years has
tern experimenting with old time roots
and herbs iorInu 10 and, his search hav
ing been finally rewarded with success,
he gives the world the result. These
recipes and fnImu.1 in other days ;c-
comrlished great .llin.s because they
were purely vegetable and combined
simply so rs to cure tho disease lndicat-
cd, without injury to the system. In
harmony with their old time character
We learn hat he proposed TO call them
Warmers Log Cabin Remedies, using as
II trade mark an Old fashioned American
/ log cabin. We unu, rstand that he in
tends to put forth "Sarsaparilla' for
the blood, the sarsaparilla itself being
but one of number ofsimple and effect
i've clements; Log Cabin Hops and
Buchu." Il general stomach tonic and in
visoralor; "Lo3 Cabin Cough and Con-
sumption Remedy "Warnor's Log
Cabin Scalpino' for the hair; Il prepare
ton for that universal disease calarrah,
called LOG Cabin Rose Crean.;' farm
er's Log Cabin Plasters;'' and "Warn-
el's Log Cabin Liver Pills." viii Il are
to he used in connection with the other
remedies, or independently as required.
Warmers safe remedies are already
standards of the most pronounced scien-
lliic value in all parts of the world, and
we have no doubt the Log Cabin Rem
cdies, for the diseases they are intended
to cure, will be of equal merit, for Mr..
Warner has the reputation Of onnect
ing his name with no reparation that il
not meritorious.
